Reply #30: The harm is the delay and waste of tax dollars

How many chaplains are there? Let's say there are five of them. At any one time these chaplains are at various places scattered all over the parishes. Now let's say a recovery team locates a corpse - they wouldn't be allowed to touch it until they can contact one of the chaplains. So, there is the recovery team, standing around with nothing to do - if they search another home they might find another body and have to call another chaplain - and wait for the chaplain to arrive. Now, how is the chaplain supposed to arrive? Does he have his own helicopter/boat/deuce-and-a-half - or does he have to hitch a ride with another crew headed in that general direction. If there are only 500 bodies to recover, it may take up to 3 to 4 hours to recover each one if the crews have to wait for the chaplain to arrive. IT'S MADNESS!!!!
